Thiabendazole

Thiabendazole, which is structurally related to albendazole and mebendazole, is used primarily for the treatment of several nematodes of cattle, horses, and sheep. Dithiazanine is another nematode anthelmintic used in veterinary medicine; it is effective against heartworms and threadworms. Levamisole is used in the treatment of lungworm infections in cattle. Phenothiazine, is still used against the wireworm of sheep and cattle. Hygromycin is an antibiotic that may also be used as an anthelmintic in the form of a feed additive to eliminate or reduce ascarids, nodular worms, and whipworms of swine, and the large roundworms and cecal worms of poultry.
